Book Description
Little is known about the relative efficiency with which alternative educational policies, set by central governments, actually influence pupil achievement. This study examines the influence of economic wealth and government spending policies on school completion rates among pupils in Mexico's states, 1973-1979. The study finds that economic factors largely determine a state's school completion rate. In addition, the evidence suggests that the provision of more places within public preschools is the most cost-effective strategy for raising primary school completion. Reducing the pupil teacher ratio is related to school completion in the short-run but is an inefficient strategy. Increasing the percentage of teachers possessing paper credentials also yields low returns relative to costs.
The Education System in Mexico

Book Description
Over the last three decades, a significant amount of research has sought to relate educational institutions, policies, practices and reforms to social structures and agencies. A number of models have been developed that have become the basis for attempting to understand the complex relation between education and society. At the same time, national and international bodies tasked with improving educational performances seem to be writing in a void, in that there is no rigorous theory guiding their work, and their documents exhibit few references to groups, institutions and forces that can impede or promote their programmes and projects. As a result, the recommendations these bodies provide to their clients display little to no comprehension of how and under what conditions the recommendations can be put into effect. The Education System in Mexico directly addresses this problem. By combining abstract insights with the practicalities of educational reforms, policies, practices and their social antecedents, it offers a long overdue reflection of the history, effects and significance of the Mexican educational system, as well as presenting a more cogent understanding of the relationship between educational institutions and social forces in Mexico and around the world.
